We’re here to make money work for everyone and we're doing things differently. For too long, banking has been obtuse, complex and opaque.

We're focused on solving problems, rather than selling financial products. We want to make the world a better place and change people's lives through Monzo.

About Our Financial Crime & Fraud Team
